Vikings Territory works in partnership with PurplePTSD, similarly doing their utmost to put forth excellent Minnesota Vikings content. As a result, we promote what they have to offer in β€œThe View from VT,” a weekly piece. Take a look at five of their articles from the past week.

The View from VT: March 28th, 2026

1) Longtime Former Viking Signs with Cardinals: Much to like in Oli Udoh. The depth lineman has tremendous size and some versatility. As a result, he’s an appealing option from within an NFL that’s always starved for help in the trenches.

2) He’s 6’4″ and Has Great Speed. Oh, and The Vikings are Bringing Him in for a Visit: For a little while, the Vikings have needed a complementary WR3 who has an imposing frame. Think someone who can take the roof off the defense and block defensive backs into oblivion. Could that player arrive in the 3rd?

3) Meet the Vikings’ Newcomers So Far This Offseason: Added together, the pile of external adds is pretty modest. There has been moves for a QB1, P1, OT3, and CB3. Otherwise, all of the moves have been for players internal to the Minnesota Vikings. Did the team do enough?

4) Jalen Nailor Pounds the Table for Former Vikings Teammate: Says something that so many of J.J. McCarthy’s teammates believe in him. He’s not a lock to succeed, but he’s far from a lock to fail. Give it time. The kid is going to get things figured out.

5) Coveted Rookie Defender Met with Vikings: Due diligence. Minnesota’s defense has been very good but can still push upward toward elite. Doing so will mean coaxing growth out of who is already in town alongside adding more talent.
